Good afternoon dear @tattooodjay !
The photos are lovely. They really look so helpless to those little ducklings without their mother.
It's amazing to see how the mothers are attentive to everyone following her and if one gets distracted and goes somewhere else she goes to look for him.
In the park of my city there is also a small lake where we can see postcards very similar to the ones you have shared with us.
Big hug
thanks for the visit and Hug :)
it is nice seeing the ducklings and how protective the parents are :)
